Review of Heavy-Quark Production at Fixed-Target Experiments
Jeffrey A. Appel
An increasingly large amount of quality fixed-target data on heavy-quark production at fixed-target energies is appearing. This data can provide information across a range of physi…
The Experiment Road to the Heavier Quarks and Other Heavy Objects
Jeffrey A. Appel
After a brief history of heavy quarks, I will discuss charm, bottom, and top quarks in turn. For each one, I discuss its first observation, and then what we have learned about prod…
Search for Rare and Forbidden Charm Meson Decays D0--> V l+ l- and h h l l
Fermilab E791 Collaboration, E. M. Aitala
We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor, and lepton-number violating decays of the 3 and 4-body decay modes of D0 (and its antiparticle…
Observation of color-transparency in diffractive dissociation of pions
E791 Collaboration, E. M. Aitala
We have studied the diffractive dissociation into di-jets of 500 GeV/c pions scattering coherently from carbon and platinum targets. Extrapolating to asymptotically high energies (…
Direct measurement of the pion valence quark momentum distribution, the pion light-cone wave function squared
E791 Collaboration, E. M. Aitala
We present the first direct measurements of the pion valence quark momentum distribution which is related to the square of the pion light-cone wave function. The measurements were…
Fermilab E791
L. M. Cremaldi
Fermilab E791, a very high statistics charm particle experiment, recently completed its data taking at Fermilab's Tagged Photon Laboratory. Over 20 billion events were recorded thr…
